Lyrics
'M STILL MISSING YOU
Music and lyrics by Lynda Dobbin-Turner
V1
There's a place I go when I need time alone
To sit and talk with you
And there are times I swear when I'm sitting there
I can hear you talking too
And if I close my eyes to that gentle breeze that always finds me sitting there
I can almost feel your fingers gently touch my hair
And I thought it would be easier, after all that I've been through
But at times like this there's nothing I can do
I'm still missing you
V2
If you could look into my life these days, you wouldn't recognize a thing
'Cause so many things have changes for me, since we wore each other's rings
And so many windows opened, after we had to shut the door
But somethings are just like they were before
And I thought it would be easier, after all that I've been through
But at times like this there's nothing I can do
I'm still missing you
BRIDGE
Then a tear slips gently down my face for all we never got to do
Then it's followed by another, for all the dreams we never saw come true
Then it all just gets away from me, and there's not one thing I can do
But let my heart cry itself out, and when it's through
V3
I straighten up my face and tuck those feelings deep inside
'Cause there's someone that waits at home for me, and this is so hard on his pride
He is all that I could ask for, there's not one thing he wouldn't do
And if the truth be know it's his love that pulled me through
And I thought it would be easier, after all that I've been through
But at times like this there's nothing I can do
I'm still missing you
